Lebanon黎巴嫩
Many dishes, such as hummus10, a delicious chickpea spread, are pervasive throughout the Middle East. But when you’re in Beirut, don’t leave without trying mezze, a selection of starters with dips like hummus and the smoky eggplant baba ganoush, fresh vegetables, olives and leavened bread that could be a meal in itself。
Lebanese cuisine relies heavily on poultry and meat, especially lamb, grilled or served in a stew. Lebanon also has a growing wine industry, but only order if you’re handed a wine menu; traditional Islamic law generally prohibits drinking alcohol。
黎巴嫩的許多菜肴都風(fēng)靡整個(gè)中東地區(qū),比如鷹嘴豆泥——一種美味的鷹嘴豆醬。但如果你在貝魯特,就不能錯(cuò)過(guò)品嘗“餐前小菜”——包括以鷹嘴豆泥、煙熏茄子醬等作為蘸醬的多種開(kāi)胃菜、新鮮蔬菜、橄欖以及膨松的面包。這種餐前小菜本身就可作為一頓飯。
黎巴嫩的菜肴中有大量家禽和肉類,特別是羔羊肉(可烤制或者是燉制)。黎巴嫩的酒業(yè)也在不斷發(fā)展,但你只能在被遞上酒單時(shí)點(diǎn)酒,因?yàn)閭鹘y(tǒng)伊斯蘭法律一般禁止飲酒。

The best meals are worth the money in Russia. If you see solyanka on the menu, don’t hesitate to order. This salty, sour and often spicy soup combined with meat or fish and topped with smetana, Russian sour cream, is delicious。
Borscht and pelmeni (dumplings) are ubiquitously Russian, but experiment with different varieties, such as salmon and wild mushroom pelmeni. Borscht can be spiced up with roasted apples and smoked goose breast. If you find the time, a culinary side trip to Georgia or Armenia in search of Azerbaijaini plov, a spiced rice dish cooked with meat and dried fruit, is worth the journey。
在俄羅斯,上等的美食值得你花錢(qián)品嘗。如果你在菜單上看到酸辣濃湯,那你一定要點(diǎn)。這個(gè)咸、酸,通常還有點(diǎn)辣的湯里有肉或魚(yú),上面還加了“斯美塔那”——一種俄羅斯酸奶油,非常美味。
羅宋湯和俄羅斯餃子“佩爾米尼”在俄羅斯非常常見(jiàn),不過(guò)你也可以嘗嘗各種不同的口味,比如鮭魚(yú)和野蘑菇水餃。羅宋湯可以用烘烤過(guò)的蘋(píng)果和熏鵝脯來(lái)提味。如果你有時(shí)間的話,可以順便去游覽一下格魯吉亞或亞美尼亞,品嘗一種用肉和果脯烹制而成的香米飯“Azerbaijaini plov”,絕對(duì)不虛此行。
